It's Star Wars Day; and whether you're Light Side or Dark, Jedi or Sith, original trilogy diehard or fan of the prequels and sequels (we won't judge), Fort Worthians have lots of ways to celebrate everything that happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
Here are some places to go for Star Wars-themed food, drinks, collectibles, and more. May the Fort — er, Fourth — be with y'all.
Zoli's Pizza
Zoli's on Hulen Street has been known for the heavy Star Wars influence on its décor, from murals to a vinyl Han Solo plastered on a metal door. For May the Fourth, the pizza joint will offer its Thermal Detonator pizza topped with mozzarella, spicy cherry pepper ricotta, hot soppressata, cherry tomatoes, and stuffed jalapeño poppers.
Cow Tipping Creamery
Actually, just past the Han Solo door is the Cow Tipping Creamery, which is serving up a special sundae inspired by Princess Leia's iconic hairdo in "A New Hope." The Snickerdoodle Princess is cinnamon soft serve topped with housemade snickerdoodle cookie chunks, cinnamon sugar dust, cinnamon roll frosting, a mini-cinnamon roll topper — and an adorable cookie shaped like the young Alderaan royal herself.
Trinity Coffee House
The Foundry District coffee shop has two Star Wars-inspired drink specials, Cloud City and Knights of Ren. If you miss out on them today, you can still try them between now and May 15 as part of the shop's Battle of the Barista competition.
Great Harvest Bread Co.
The Magnolia Avenue bakery has one scoundrel of a deal going on for May the Fourth — wear a Han Solo vest or Star Wars costume and get a free treat.
Fanboys Marketplace
Fanboys recently moved into new digs — from Hulen Street to Camp Bowie Boulevard — turning the former Stein Mart into something that looks like a comic con vendor floor, but year-round. Between perusing what Star Wars goodies you can find at each booth, you can also text "star wars" to 817-968-5887 for a chance to win a Wedge Antilles Snowspeeder LEGO set.
Holocron Toy Store
Of course, you can't celebrate May the Fourth and not pay a visit to Fort Worth's mecca for Star Wars collectibles. While the West Vickery toy shop isn't having a big party as it had been known to do in the past (thanks, COVID), there is a 10% off sale going on in store and online.
